entered his body The wounds in the

prize OF 500 on the state championship.
They did this, too with twelve men

the contest was made there was u differ

New Vessels for the Navy.

The ship contractors now building
vessels for the navy have given up
all hope Of completing them within
the contract time, and are making
every possible effort to secure an ex-
tension. The penalties for non.com.
pletion are so heavy that if they are
strictly enforced, Judging from pres
ent indications, before the vessels
are completed the contractors will.
instead of receiving any compensa-
ton for their work, be in debt to the
government. The contractors are
advancing strong arguments in ia
vor of an extension of time, They
assert that the delay is entirely the
fault of the Navy Department. The
principal object of attack is the
steel test circular. They claim that
the tests prescribed by the circular
are entirely too severe The deliv-
cry of steel has been exceedingly
slow, and for this reason full force
of men could not be employed
Much of the steel rejected by the in
spectors was eagerly bought up by
ship builders and used in the con.
struction of first class ocean steamers
For these and other reasons the con
tractors think that it will be unjust
to exact the penalty from them

A Novel Business Calendar and
Stand.

0bdAAs
BY far the most novel, convenient,
and business calendar for 1885 is
the Columbia Bicycle Calendar and
Stand just issued by the Pope Man.
ufacturing Company, of Boston Mass.
In this calendar a new departure has
been made, decidedly unique and
different from any previous attempt
in calendar construction. The cal
endar proper is in the form of q pad,
containing 365 leaves, one for each
day in the year, to be torn off daily.
The leaves are 81 by "a inches, and
a portion of each leaf is left blank
for memoranda, so arranged that the
memorandum blank for any coming
day can be turned to Immediately at
any time. The pad rests upon a por-
table stand, which takes up but little
more room than the pad itself, and
when placed upon the desk or writing
table the entire surface of the date
leaf is brought directly, and left con.
stan:ly, before the eye, furnishing
date and memoranda, impossible to
be overlooked. Besides the month,
the day of the month, and the day of
the week. the number Uf the days of
the year passed and to come are spe-
CITED, and up IN each slip appears, as
in the previous Columbia calendars,
quotations pertaining to cycling
from leading publications and prom
inent writer's on both sides of the
ocean. The notable events in CIV
cling are mentioned, and concise
opinions of medical authorities /;
words from prominent wheelmen, in
Guiding those of clergymen and other
professional gentlemen; rights of cy.
clers upon the roads: general cycling
statistics; records; the benefits of
tricycling to ladies; information
about costumes; directions for road
making; and other matter interesting
to the public in general and to the
cycler in particular, appear from day
to day. In fact it is an effective, at
tractive, and fresh cycling encyclo.
p@dia, crowded into convenient
measure. A matter worth stating is
that all of the paragraphs are entire
ly new from previous years. calend
ars, and that although there seems to
be but little when read from day to
day, altogether the items would make
medium sized pamphlet, and added
to the collections of other years, a
large volume-a collection of quota
tions which shows how popular and
universal cycling is getting to be all
over the world.
